      I don’t have a religion.
      I find science and religion really fascinating subjects.
      I have some colleagues who have religious beliefs and are scientists too, I don’t think that they are necessarily exclusive,

      No I don’t. To me the principle of a higher power does not fit with attempting to understand the world using scientific methods. This is not to say there is anything wrong with believing in this tho and religions teach many important things about how to be kind to others which are valid whether you belive in a god or not.
